Answer:
.5q=14
Step-by-step explanation:
half means .5 or 1/2
so we can put .5 in front of q which means whatever q is it will be half of that. And then "is" means equals.
One half is equal to 3/6.
One third is equal to 2/6.
After removing 600 litres from the tank, there is a decrease from 3/6 to 2/6
3/6-2/6=1/6
600 litres is 1/6 of the tank. Multiply by 6 to get the capacity of a full tank.
600*6=3600
The tank can hold 3600 litres.
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to distinguish the numbers with x from the "normal" numbers.
2x and 6x are numbers with x.
3 and 0 are "normal" numbers.
Now we have to seperate them on different sides of the equal sign.
To do this, we can subtract 3 from the left side and then add it to 0 on the left side.
Therefore, the equation will now be 2x + 6x = -3.
Now we can add 2x and 6x together, making it 8x.
The equation will now be 8x = -3.
To find the product of x, we need to divide both sides together.
So 8 divided by -3 will make -2.
Therefore, x is -2.
Hope my explination makes sense :)
P=t+3-2
Move P to the front so t goes and replaces it.
